Report of Club 'Meeting—Avons
1^^—v*^—wjp^rA
R. Gordon
On February 9, I first met the girls of the club. They had met a
few times before but as yet had not formulated their constitution, chosen
their offices, or in fact, done much of anything.
Their purpose, as they all agreed to at once, was purely social. After
a brief discussion, however, they finally decided that they would tire of
being just social. Other functions to be included in their activities
center around charitable work, dramatics, and athletics. Three new girls
"were^admitted into the club after they had observed the meeting. Then the
question of club officers arose. Since the girls seemed to know one another
rather well, it seemed best to elect offices so that the club could get
under way. There was one girl who was particularly anxious to be
president, and it seemed as though she was everybody's very good friend,
and would get the office. The results, however, were rather surprising.
One of the newly admitted members was chosen, as president. The other girl
was nominated for every office, but did not get elected. Evidently she
either was not as popular as she thought she was, or else, despite her
popularity, the girls realized that she did not possess the requisite
ability for club leadership. The girl who did get theoffice seems to *>C
rather intelligent, dependable and capable. After election of officers,
the girls voted on being in All Star ^ight. On the whole the girls
seem to be cooperative and they certainly have the "club spirit." Of
course, being in the adolescent age, they are rather silly at times and
their main interest naturally the "male sex." They are always leaving
for drinks of water—they seem to be abnormally thirsty during club
hours. I think, though, that they can accomplish something worthwhile
as they do seem intelligent and enthusiastic.
